Campaign
On August 23, 2022, Perez announced he would run in the 2022 Manteria special gubernatorial race after his grandmother, Heather Perez, gained the Federalist nomination for presidential candidate. In the September 2022 primary, Perez became the Federalist nominee, winning 59% of the vote and defeating Jillian Hurley, who took 34%, and Kamar Hall, who took 7%.
While campaigning in 2022, Perez said that, if elected, he would continue his grandmother legacy and focus on improving Manteria's "fundamentals"; he named schools, roads, and water systems as priorities. Perez's main opponent was Constitutionalist Jacob Barnett. The two candidates debated twice.
Perez defeated Barnett in the December 18 election by nearly a 10-point margin.
